| Abstract: |
The watching brief was carried out during improvement works on Bedford High Street in a section adjacent to St Paul's Square. The work allowed a very limited keyhole type examination of the High Street deposits between the projected extent of the outer bailey of Bedford Castle and a medieval cemetery. Intact archaeological deposits dating to the post-medieval period, were encountered 0.5m below the pavement, and undisturbed geology at c.0.4m below the carriageway. [Au] |
